What number are you trying for? 2
Month/Cycle? Just starting
WTO/TWW? WTO after IUD removal tomorrow.
Ages of other child(ren)? 6 yo
Any thoughts about this cycle? Nervous about what my body will do post IUD.
Any questions? Nope
Rant/Rave? We have always been of the one and done mindset but recently that changed for both of us so here we are.
GTKY: Are you a morning or night person? Definitely a night person. If I didn’t have to get kiddo up for school and myself to work I would sleep the morning away!
Hi Friends; probably new friends since I haven't been around since like July. I'm Mambo, I'm 30. I have three humans that I made, the last one was born 3 months early. She scared the poop out of us, H decided to get a vasectomy. Mambo wanted more babies, we did IVF and had a crappy fertilization rate. H has decided to have his vasectomy reversed and his varicocele removed hoping that fixes things. I am also a recurrent pregnancy loss human with five or six losses I've lost count.
What number are you trying for? #4
Month/Cycle? Eh we were IVF so... its been like a year process
WTO/TWW? I would be at WTO
Ages of other child(ren)? 10, 8, 5
Any thoughts about this cycle? H has surgery in the next week or so.
Any questions? Nope
Rant/Rave? I am very nervous about moving forward. Its been a tough year with a failed transfer and low fertilization rate on eggs and now moving forward its rough.
GTKY: Are you a morning or night person? Can i be a mid day person, I like to sleep in and go to bed early.

@AmMcc12 I love meeting other people involved with foster care! Both our kiddos are adopted / being adopted from foster care, but they’ve been with us since they were babies
I literally got to do an adoption today at work. I'm a social worker so foster care, adoptions, all sorts of things are super close to my heart
